Next HIKE Inc. Sunday 13 April

Autumn colours, manicured gardens, spectacular view points, a cafe start - all this and more at the next HIKE Inc. on Sunday 13 April at the Macedon Ranges Walking Trail.

The hike at Mount Macedon is lovely and a favourite of HIKE Inc., this will be our 3rd hike on this track. To see what you can expect, check out the photos for HIKE Inc. 4 and HIKE Inc. 19.

The hike is 5-6 hours, moderate-rated and starts with 1.5 hours of uphill. The rest of the walk is then mostly gradual downhill. Tip: starting with scones at the cafe can help with energy for the uphill!

Time: Meet at 9 for a 9.30am start (please note the earlier than usual start time)
Where: Mt Macedon Village (64km from Melbourne)

Getting there:
Follow the Calder Freeway for 57km. Exit the freeway and continue 7km along Mt Macedon Rd to the village of Mt Macedon. Park near the Mountain Inn and meet at the nearby cafe.

Remember to bring lunch, snacks, water and wet weather gear. Please let Andrew or I know if you'll be joining us. Some of us may car pool, let me know if you're interested. And if you're new to HIKE Inc., make sure that I have your mobile phone number.

See you then!
